I like that Kotaku is doing personal top 10s rather than collective, or arbitrary repetitive lists(looking at you Gamespot).

That’s why I don’t keep my credit card info saved on Steam. I don’t trust Valve much anymore.

The mystery was ok, they really could have tightened it up to three or four episodes and I think it could have been a show I could recommend. As it stands, yeah there’s far too much fluff to keep the show compelling. However, I’m pretty sure it’s opening is my favorite of the year, and really what kept me coming back…

For the most part the past few years have continued to decline in general interest and inventiveness on Valve’s part to make these sales exiting, “Hey here’s some cards, a few ok sales, and I don’t know, shift around the same 20 games on flash sale as we did six months ago?”

I have no confirmation on this, but I had always assumed the guys from The Raid were brought on to help with the action sequences(read lightsaber battles). Them as a cameo on the cargo ship I assumed was just an added bonus(because at this point who hasn’t made a cameo?), but who knows, I’d love to see some action…

Eh, Ex Machina was alright, I respect the story it was trying to tell, but it was 90% dull and dragged down by Domhnall Gleeson’s bland performance.

It wasn’t in my screening of Star Wars in 3D. Maybe the trailers are by theater or region?

Oh god, I’m so jealous of the trailers that you got. I think we got the Zootopia rip-off from the Despicable Me studio, The Jungle Book, Independence Day 2, and something else less than memorable. Why couldn’t we have Civil War and Zootopia(which until I saw that trailer I didn’t think I was interested in that film)?…

No, they’re not necessary for watching Ep 7.

Yeah I didn’t think the story was more than a serviceable return to familiar(as one review said “Star Wars as made by committee”), but felt the characters(Rey, Finn, Poe), did a good enough job that I felt invested in them for whatever happens in Ep8.

1. I’m not very good at recognizing music unless it’s lacking or doesn’t really fit. I didn’t notice the music so I found it worked with the movie.

That makes a lot more sense then a literal losing of one’s religion. I mean how do you lose a religion anyways?

I think Martha and Clara both fall into the category of interesting characters who didn’t live up to their potential. They are my favorite companions, but it seemed the writers never knew what to do with them 80% of the time. :(

I’m cool with the general idea that cross-universe generally happen when it’s convenient and less so that all things are happening in such a way that they need to be addressed. I also like to imagine many other stories are going on in the time that the characters are not on the screen. I mean why would Captain America…

Don’t you get a Gauss rifle from the Railroad for completing one of the quests? Or maybe it’s a random thing. All I know is I got a Gauss rifle at the Railroad HQ for free.

The one I saw on Netflix was much more dynamic(especially the scene of the three mains under the studio lights marching in place), but that may be based on the BD version.

Bones seems to always have the best opening songs. I think half the reason I watched the first season of Noragami was because of that song and opening animation.
